Alison Mills Newman one of the pioneers in TV

Had an opportunity to talk with Alison Mills Newman who is a pioneer. She was one of the first black actors to appear on TV at a time there were few black faces on television.
She talks about attending classes with Maya Angelou, Don Mitchell who later appeared on Ironside. She also talks about her new film entitled The Tree Widow about a woman coping with the loss of her husband after a very marriage. The widow finds solace by walking through the trees and taking in other troubled women.
